2100-XX Protocol Support Information:

Programming software:

Regardless of the protocol and messages used, the 2100-XX remote stations all use the same programming software for setup and testing.

This software is for users without the SCADA installed on their PLC. If you are already running MicroScan on your PC, you may be able to use the existing Setup Manager to access the stations. Please contact Intech Instruments for further information.

Protocol Details:

This information details the protocol to access information out of the 2100-XX stations, with a PLC or software written on a computer.

Before using the station with any PLC software, its address and ranges must be programmed.

The default station number for all units is station number 1.
2100-A16 Default for all analogue inputs is RTD 0~100 Deg C.

This is the document that covers all SCADA related comms messages used to read and write data from the station. Uses IEEE 754 floating point numbers for analogue values.
